Summary
The thunder roared between the clouds, casting down its claws onto the yells of anguish below. Somewhere in the distance, despite the rain, a heavy musk of smoke mixed with the metallic scent of blood.
The yells were deafening, blending into one another, morphing into a looming monster everyone, and everything whole. There was no way to differentiate the noise coming from your throat, and the noise coming from others. No way to tell which way your mother yells for you, which way your father does, where your brother cries, or where your sister dies.
The most surreal sound, one that stood out from the rest, must be the crystalline shimmer, whispering all around their town. Amidst the rain, the thunder, and fire. Luminous shimmering light sparkled through the air high above them, gliding down foot by foot, as the only safety they ever knew came down from all sides.
The barrier was down, and with that, more noise came in.
------
"Once that barrier comes down, only a host can bring it back up." An Elder would always say. A Host. A being above us all, who have granted us this blessing of safety, and security.
A Host, who they later find out, took all that away as well.
